Here at 834, we are firm believers in social media and content creation. In the world we live in, social media and online personalities are crucial to connect with audiences. But here’s the thing: everyone else thinks so, too. It is almost unheard of for a company not to have a website, Facebook page, Twitter […]
Hi folks! Telly here. For those of you that don’t know, I recently celebrated the Big 3-6-5 here at 834 Design & Marketing. It’s been a year of learning, challenges, oopsies and triumphs both inside and outside the office. Transitioning from college to “the real world” isn’t easy. In fact, it’s not supposed to be. […]
Here at 834 Design & Marketing, we continuously joke about having a “small army” of associates. Where other firms or agencies may offer opportunities to one or two select individuals, we always seem to be outnumbered by our ambitious student counterparts. This summer was no exception. In fact, we had more associates than ever before […]
Believe it or not, the new website has been in the works for over a year…that isn’t to say we have been working on it for a year…cause we haven’t…just that it has been in process. Our tagline is “It’s All About You” – and that couldn’t be more true. We have been pretty busy […]

Client holiday cards and gifting can be a huge sigh of creative relief or a giant burden wrapped in a bow and shoved on your back in a bright red sack. Either way, it translates to time and money spent. It also, however, presents the opportunity to show your clients how much they are appreciated […]
Try getting the attention of your friend sitting across the room typing away on their mobile device. You’ll need all the luck in the world with that one. The amount of face-to-face contact is dwindling because many find it easier and more convenient to connect with on social media. A 2013 study by Google proved that […]
Baby Telly, If I told you five years ago that you would uproot your life and move to a “real city” on a whim, would you believe me? Meh, probably not. I’m living it right now and, most days, it’s still unbelievable. You have so much to be proud of, and I hope you remember […]
I have to take a moment to shamelessly plug the 834 team. We have had a VERY busy couple of weeks and though it is a young team, they pulled together, stepped up and I heard not one word of complaint. We have conquered Lights in the Night, events, street team outreach, blog writing, social […]
